Syndi Anderson's technical background provides understanding

Nov. 3, 2012

For too many years Iíve watched legislators in Denver pass, or try to pass, laws without any understanding of the technical or economic basis for what they are doing.

Efforts to incentivize high-speed rail and biofuels are examples of ideas that sound good but fail to meet the test of good engineering judgment. It is time that we send someone to the state Senate who has a solid technical background and is capable of sorting through proposed legislation that threatens to waste our tax dollars on foolish projects.

I believe Syndi Anderson is just such a person. Unlike John Kefalas in the Senate race, she has always paid her taxes and has never waved a protest sign in front of a local military recruiting station. With school-age children of her own, she fully understands the need to improve our public education system. She is not backed by the local moneyed class and depends on grassroots support for her election. Letís pull together and give Syndi the help and votes she needs to be the legislator we can all be proud of in Senate District 15.
